Q" Reinforcemenft For America • The most rapidly growing group of new in i’ -trial uses for cotton is that in which cotton loses its original identity to find a new life in combination with some other raw material. The classical illustration is the ruhher in dustry, where cotton finds almost illimitahle uses in products ranging all the way from auto mobile tires to lastex varn. But now crowding this great industrv in its capacity to use cotton are such new industries as synthetic resins, which use cotton not only as a reinforcement for molded and laminated products, hut also in coatings and enamelings. On the market today are even such incredible new products as cotton faced plywood wall panels, and cotton-concrete roofing shingles. To those who have known the cotton indus try long and well, however, this ability of cotton to reinforce oilier industrial products is not too strange. For ir» a very real sense the cotton in dustry has always been the reinforcement, base, and support of other industries in the Cotton Belt and in America. Cotton is America’s great industrial crop, alone of all crops capable of giving us clothing, food, and shelter in all their refinements. When we make good use of cotton we build our future.

NEWS COMEDY Adm.: Mat. 10c-20c Night 10c-30c SENATE APPROVES FREEZING Act Would Prevent Sale of Loan Staple During the Present Europea,n War Washington, July 29.—A patch- work bill intended to give cotton and wheat farmers higher prices for their crops this year won senate approval late today after more than five hours of wrangling and voting. A major provision of the hotly de bated measure, which now goes to the house, would prevent the government from marketing Ks loan stocks of 6,- 000 bales of cotton and nearly 300,- 000,000 bushels of wheat during the present European war. The loan stocks were acquired by the government- as a result of its price-supporting loans to farmers. Senators from the cotton and wheat belts explained that the possibility that the government might market its stocks tended to depress market prices received for new crops. They said freezing these stocks, or keeping them from normal market and trade chan nels, would allow farmers to enjoy higher prices as a result of expand ing needs of the defense and British- aid programs.

In 1939, of course, it was a matter of Jonston versus Senator Smith, who had been feuding with Mr. Roosevelt. The current situation manifestly is quite different. It embraces no feud involving the president. It is not expected that the presi dent will openly endorse Maybank, but unless Columbia is badly fooled, Mr. Roosevelt in for him. Whether the president himself helped the governor come to his hard-earned decision to run has not been hinted, but others high in au thority in Washington are said to have given some important pushes to the governor in that direction. | The clear indication that Washing ton wants the governor elected has in no wise, apparently, helped the guess- ers here who would like right now to pick the winner. The situation is unusual and be clouded. There are two native sons of the Piedmont in the contest, both con sidered formidable in their own area, which is an area where voters are more abundant than in any other sec tion of the state. There is the unusual situation of a governor entering the contest with his tenure as governor having al most a year and a half to go. | The campaign will be relatively short. Men here believe Johnston and Joseph R. Bryson are going to divide between themselves most of the cot ton mill vote, particularly in Green ville and Spartanburg. They note that while the govenor is believed to have gained friends in that area since he became governor, this might be offset by the two-way bid by the native sons—Johnston and Bryson. Maybank was elected governor chiefly on the vote he received in the lower section of the state, and even Maybank men concede he may nave lost ground in that section as a res ult of this and that battle with lower state politicians. But others picture a second race between Maybank and Johnston <hat would see even folk who may have fallen out with Maybank voting for him rather than for Johnston. Some here believe that an important point unless in the first race Representa tive Butler B. Hare should come in for a heavy and dangerous share of a type of vote Maybank might other wise' receive. It is a fact that there is consider able talk about Hare. Although on the surface he is as much a New Dealer as the others in the contest, it seems that Hare is well liked by conseratives and “liberals” alike. In the various changes of districts in the western section of the state, Hare served the entire western fringe of the state in the national house of re presentatives, from the mountains to the seacoast and has a large follow ing there. The Maybank men will count heav ily on the large vote of federal work ers, receivers of federal benefits and officeholders, and that may weigh heavily in the governor’s favor. CAMDEN FOLK GRACIOUS (Continued Jrom page one) den gave the English, too, was warm but not of the kind of intensity aff- forded by Red Coats in 1776. Probably some of the Englishmen have now seen Camden’s famous tree which was planted by General Lafayette when he was on these shores to aid the Colonists in their fight for freedom. And, they say, too, the instructors of the R. A. F. lads are living now In Deare Place where George Washing ton and Lafayette stopped on their visit to Camden back in Revolutionary days. The good people of Camden took the Britishers to their hearts at once and showed them some of that good old Southern hospitality of which they had heard. Camden has been able to retain a great deal of the charm of the Old South .and to train in such a place has been doubly educational to the pilots. In Camden churches and homes, the boys from across the water found friends. “I couldn’t understand everything they said,” confessed the host to a couple of the boys, “and when I said ‘huh’ it gave them a big laugh. I no ticed that they used very little sugar in their tea—said it was sweet enough. They’re used to conserving sugar, you know’. Woodward Field at Camden where is located the air training center started flight training for the Unit ed States air corps in March and graduated its first class in May. This group consisted largely of American youths from New England. The sec ond class of American students grad uated July 14. The third class consists of sixty British boys and they are be ing followed every five weeks by sixty-six more trainees from the Unit ed Kingdom. There were 556 United Kingdom students who reported for training in the southeast air corps training place for flights, it’s “Mr. So-And-So, have you soloed. Ok, you’re off in five minutes”. And a boyish face takes on a bit of a grin and another youth is off to a new ad venture.
